| Mame Devs Part of BYOAC? |
| << < (4/15) > >> |
| CheffoJeffo:
What did that binary have to do with BYOAC ? It was hosted on MW, wasn't it ? |
| Kaytrim:
It was an altered binary file and against the license that MAME has. We are able to recompile MAME but we can't distribute the binary file. Kaytrim |

RBelmont may just have been having a bad day, however a couple of Mamedevs have been slagging us here lately, and it's unfortunate. Still I would highly recommend that everyone refrain from answering him with any snide comments, as he has given a lot to this community, no question. Somewhere, someone here may have ticked mamedev off, and there's no need to start a brawl when there is absolutely no need for it. Also, if you saw someone doing something to profit from your hard work, you'd probably be a bit pissy about it too. There's no question that the info on this site could be used to build illegal machines that play mame(tm) for money, on location. So just let it go, that's my honest opinion. |

I get the licensing issues, but wondered what set him off about this place ? The key is undoubtedly in the deleted post. If there is something going on here that hasn't been addressed and is pissing the MAMEDevs off, then it would be useful to know what it is. If we don't know, then we can't do anything about it.

I wonder if it has anything to do with the multi game boards that were talked about for a while then Saint sent the threads to post hell. I remember that one of the devs, Adam I think, posted in one of those threads very pissed off about other people making money off of their hard work. |
